pickI absolutely adored this book. Set in WWII, 2 boys are attempting to reunite with their parents. They must make it all the way across France to do so. I have no idea what the author was trying to convey but what I took away from this story was the unending kindness of strangers. So many beautiful people, at every stop, helped these boys. We all need to remember it‘s the little things in life.

pickA heart rending story of two young French Jews who find themselves alone on the streets of France after their caregiver dies and they flee a Nazi roundup. At 12 and 9 they embark on an impossible journey to reunite with their parents who fled to Argentina. Both a story of hope and heartbreak.
pickTwo young Jewish brothers escape detainment and search for their parents during 1942, WWII. I liked having the POV of Jacob and Moses because they were full of grit but also vulnerable children. I really felt for them, children having to rely on strangers for help during a time when trust was not easy. Beautiful turns of phrases and sentences in here. I think fans of WWII fiction will like this.
